After millions of years, dogs still use their noses to survive by
smelling danger or sniffing out the location of their food. We use dogs
to find bed bugs, certain cancers, landmines, and to locate criminals,
lost people, and even victims of natural disasters. Dogs give companies
within the oil and gas industry an effective, efficient and safe
detecting tool that works with speed and accuracy.

When you use dogs for leak detection, you only have to dig once. Dogs
can be used during leak audits and can also be used in pipeline
maintenance, especially on lines that are 30 or more years old. This
part can be critical to any company because the dogs are fast and in a
situation where you do not want to shut down a line, the dog can be used
to locate a leak on an active line.

Dogs are wonderful detection tools, suited for use in even the most
environmentally sensitive areas. The weight of the dog does not destroy
sensitive flora or grasslands, as a huge mechanical shovel would. The
dogs do not have to be brought in by huge trucks to a location – they
are themselves self-propelling. And to date, no hi-tech machine can
match the sensitivity of a dog’s nose – it’s that powerful! Dogs can
serve as a powerful general maintenance tool to locate leaks on active
lines before the leak can spread into small rivers and creeks or on to
farmers’ fields.

Now that the oil sector is rebounding in West Texas, there’s a
renewed rush to build out pipeline systems from the Midland region to
Houston, where the oil can move to refiners, processing plants or other
continents as the crude export market picks up, probably in 2018. More
storage hubs and export terminals along the Houston Ship Channel are
getting built by Magellan and others.

The only business with a larger terminal and storage hub in Houston
is the local company, Enterprise Products Partners, which recently opted
to build its own pipeline network to maximum capacity from Midland to
its ECHO — Enterprise Crude Houston — terminal. Enterprise, Magellan and
other companies are competing in every aspect of the transportation,
storage and processing of the crude in order to reap as much profit and
market share as possible, said Sandy Fielden, Morningstar’s director of
oil and products research.

“It’s getting crowded and everyone is jockeying,” Fielden said. “The
pipeline companies are trying to control as much of the volume as they
can from the wellhead all the way to the refinery or even the export
dock.”
